AGUADO'S LITTLE FINGER.
1 Reply
I'm sure we all know the picture of Aguado from his 1843 method, which image some interpret as showing him with little finger resting on bridge. I'd have to presume such interpretation is arrived at…Continue

Giuliani's op10, Capriccio and errors alleged
23 Replies
Giuliani's op10 is frequently sitting on my music stand (being played), and only because I'm convinced enough of certain errors which I've corrected for myself. Without such corrections, part of it…Continue

Profile Information
- About me:
- Amateur plucking enthusiast, mainly classical guitar. I've been dabbling in renaissance lute, cittern, and gittern since 2000, though never managed to become fully converted... lots of period instrument listening, and very keen on working from facsimile scores.
Scores
The following humble offerings are adaptions from baroque guitar to 4 courses - perhaps at times leaning towards re-entrant tuning for the 4th course.
And some 5 course tablature, following the original, but with lines reversed bottom to top.

Monica Hall said… - As it happens many years ago I compiled a thematic index of the pieces in Foscarini's book (and a lot of other guitar books - all in the British Library) in the course of some work I did as a librarian. I checked my 1976 thesis and that 3-part chord is what I have put there so I assume that it is legible in the British Library's copy. I will check at some future date. It does raise another question -should I check all the other pieces to see if there are any variants - a mammoth task. The titles and dedications of some of the pieces are different. Foscarini does seem to indicate quavers after the missing chord. Anyway all of it is now in the can except Book 1 and I am starting a major check and re-ed. I am planning to split it into separate books so that the files wont be so big. Will take a long time however.

This is my version. There is not much to chose between our versions but there are a couple of things. I think you are working from the Spes facsimile. In the corrente something has been wiped out after the first N5 but in an earlier copy in the British Library I think there is a chord there - marked with an ! in my version. The corrente bars easily with 6 crotchets to a bar which is usual for correntes - the crotchets can be grouped as two groups of three or three groups of two.

- Thanks for the Volta. As you say - the Sarabande is straight forward. It is more or less the same as the one on p.51 which was also included in Corbetta's 1648 book. Look forward to seeing the courante as well - it seemed fairly straightforward too.
